Away from the media spotlight, feeling like they are not at the level shown last year and having not been an active part of the market, the Minnesota Timberwolves are not among the franchises that are being talked about the most. However, there are ample reasons to believe that they will be much more prominent in the final stretch of the regular season.

They have developed automatisms among the most important members of the squad, they know what it takes to play in a Conference final and are fully aware of what is needed in the playoffs to succeed. All of this allows the Minnesota Timberwolves wolf to be sharpening their teeth already for a postseason they don't even have secured, but for which they seem destined. Their performance has gone from strength to strength, they have a solid group, and having stars full of intelligence and competitive character makes them dangerous.

Their recent victory against the Thunder was the best possible warning to the entire NBA that they are ready to raise their level. Anthony Edwards is a formidable player, and when things get tougher, having defensive centers like Gobert or Reid is a game-changer. The competition is fierce, and it is difficult to think of them right now as solid contenders, but the Minnesota Timberwolves have everything it takes to succeed and overthrow some franchises with more name and expectations than them.
